With a second-hand dress and her imagination, Kayleigh "became" a princess. Most grown-ups forget how to make-believe. For many of us, "real life" doesn't include magic, miracles or happy endings. Yet, if we can re-learn this ability, we might have the power to create our reality, and if we believe, then anything might be possible--even our own transformation. Make it. Believe in it. Become it. In the very best sense, Kayleigh really was a princess.
